The Half

T898231237
A 50 year old actor, down on his luck, attempts to reverse his fortunes by doing a one man show. Nothing new there... except that he's chosen Shakespeare's Hamlet - uncut - four-and-a-half hours! He's sold his car and his father's gold watch to pay for it all and his wife has left him. Everything rides on it. It's his opening night - 35 minutes before curtain up (The Half) and he is starting to unravel... Will he make it to the stage or will he self-destruct?
